Hello my friend Tryber, I came back to fill out the article writing on the Trybe.one Platform. This time I will share the Tutorial on how to install Scatter and connect it to an EOS account. Maybe some of Tryber’s friends already know this method, but it would be nice for me to make this tutorial so that I don’t know so, so that they both know right? Ehehe

What is Scatter?PleaseScatter is a suite of applications created to enable users to log in and connect securely to the EOS blockchain network in an easy and safe way. Scatter has a desktop application, extensions in Google Chrome and mobile. Scatter is available to sign transactions and store sensitive EOS keys. Extensions in the browser are similar to Metamask, if you are familiar with using Metamask, the method of operation is almost the same as Scatter. In my article I will discuss how to use Scatter Extensions in the browser. Please listen and learn, bro.

Scatter Makes it Easy for UsersUsers of scatter are spoiled with easy digital signatures for every transaction on the blockchain. So, even ordinary users can comfortably use fearless scatter. You need to know that everything in the scatter application, such as passwords and other account identities, is only stored on your own device.

Scatter actively warns its users about dangerous applications so that your account data doesn’t leak, so you can be aware of the risks and avoid using these malicious applications. Safe, bro?

The Scatter application provides a Single Sign-On (SSO) login feature that uses asymmetric encryption to log into applications without a password. Well, this makes security more safety, closes the gap for hackers to hijack our account.

Then, How Do You Install Scatter?Well, I will explain steb by step how to install Scatter in the browser.

After visiting the Scatter extension link, the next step, friend, click “add to Chrome”

How to connect your EOS account with ScatterWell, to connect your EOS account with Scatter is quite easy, you must have an EOS account first. The steps are as follows:

First of all you have to enter a new password, then confirm the password and click “Create New Scatter”

Keep the Mnemonic code well by screenshots, then save it in a safe place. The Mnemonic code on the Scatter benefits is only used for password recovery and functions to regain access to Scatter if you forget the password. Click “I wrote I down” to proceed to the next step.

The next step is to enter the EOS private key and click “Import EOS Key Pair”
